Omnibus Trolls R Us Thread

The thread’s not in the BBQ Pit so explicit accusations of trolling are forbidden. So without that, some of us resort to insincere answers.

I don’t do it as much anymore, but I have often responded to people I think are trolls. I try to drop hints, but it’s hard to do with the rules as tight as they are.

I mostly don’t open the threads at all if I can tell by the title now, though. So I don’t know if people seem to be feeding the troll or not, and thus have no reason to say anything.

This will go well.

Ha! Yeah. I felt my motivation and life force completely drain out of my body with a tremendous sigh at the beginning of that.

Norse religions are good because they have… TROLLS!!! :smiley:

For some reason, nothing brings on the red mist in me like some random dickhead proposing a vague topic and then contributing nothing except an imperious “discuss”. We’re not your fucking trained monkeys, so fuck off, fuckstick.

Good on Bone for shutting that shit down.

It’s probably going to go in the direction of the OP never showing up again, so it’ll devolve into a general discussion on tangential issues. He hasn’t been around after the initial outbursts yesterday, but then, today is Sunday, so who knows. Maybe he spends his Sundays in church – the morning devoted to worship, the afternoon to the regular church meeting plotting stratagems and spoils against Democrats, gays, abortionists, and other godless infidels.

Eddie the Infidel has a nice ring to it.

Oh, he came back all right. I seriously doubt he will pay any mind to my little link there to some evangelical pastors calling on Trump to denounce alt-right “evil”…

There is a strain of evangelism I kinda like, the kind Jimmy Carter manifests. All about the “good news”, the love, the forgiveness, and not so much about God made you gay and now He hates you for it. That’s not something to worship, that’s just a grade or two above Cthulu!

He mentioned something about picking a 25 word name… :dubious:

Behold Caminandocuevro, member of the species Wangstius whingius

I saw that earlier today and had to run the first sentence through a word count.

264 words. If it’s not a record, it should be.

There’s no reason for the second paragraph to be a separate paragraph, let alone a sentence (and it’s all one sentence). It should be joined with the previous sentence. I’m pretty sure the two sentences together would definitely give you the longest sentence ever written. For anyone using a CRT, the resulting solid wall of text could be used as a test pattern for geometry adjustments, thus proving that every post, no matter how humble, has some value.

I wanted to post “…”, but I refrained.

Did anybody actually read it?

I tried. It reads, roughly: I was a rebel, listened to weird music, something, something, blah, blah, I’m older and wiser, but no one believes me, and no nice women will go out with me because Satan. Help me convince everyone that I am not an evil douche, without destroying my cred (I think). Wahhhh!

You mean at the Dope specifically, or in general? Because in general, it isn’t even in the running.

Thanks for taking one for the team; saved me a click & a bunch of squinting. Friggin idjits :smiley:

I personally avoid guys like that because Satan.
